(ASM: TSX-V, ASM: NYSE-MKT; "Avino" or "the Company")</b> is pleased to announce the commencement of construction of the new Tailings Storage Facility ("TSF") at its Avino property located in Durango, Mexico.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">Following the receipt of all necessary permits and the completion of an independent engineering study, ground has been broken on the new Tailings Storage Facility. </p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">The new TSF is being constructed by Desarrollos ROD, S.A. de C.V. who are recognized as one of the premier contractors in Mexico for tailings related projects. The new TSF will cover 21 hectares and will be able to store 7.5 million tons of wet tailings. The TSF will be built in 4 stages; the first 2 stages, which are expected to take approximately 6 months to complete, have an estimated cost of US$2.2 million and will provide enough capacity for 6 operating years. Stages 3 and 4, which can be built at any time in the future, will cost US$624,000 and would provide enough storage for an additional 8 years of operations. Environmental permits are valid for 14 years of operations and an additional 11 years post production. The new TSF is being constructed on land owned by Avino.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">A new tailings storage facility is necessary to allow the existing TSF to be decommissioned, which will enable Avino to begin assessing the upper sulphide bench as well as the lower oxide bench in areas that are currently being used to store tailings from our active operations.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">The assessment work is part of the recommendations contained in the 2013 Tetra Tech Preliminary Economic Assessment (<em>"A Technical Report on the Avino Property"</em>) intended to advance the Tailings Resource towards a production decision for an agglomerated heap leach Merrill-Crowe precipitation operation. The 2013 Preliminary Economic Assessment suggests that the operation could have an IRR and NPV of 54% and $38.6 million, respectively, using US$20.38 per ounce for silver and US$1,256 per ounce for gold; and could add an additional 1.4 million ounces of silver equivalent to Avino's consolidated annual production for a period of 5 years.</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px">Once the new TSF is completed, Avino will decommission the current TSF, then begin installing wells which will be used to pump out the retained water in the dam. This will speed up the sonic drilling program planned for the upper benches, provide samples for the metallurgical program, and increase confidence in the oxide resource located below the sulphide tailings. </p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px"><i>A preliminary economic assessment should not be considered to be a prefeasibility or feasibility study, as the economics and technical viability of the Project have not been demonstrated at this time. The preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. Furthermore, there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.</i></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px"><i>&nbsp;</i></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px"><i>Data disclosed in the 2013 technical report by Tetra Tech: A Technical Report on the Avino Property.

These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this news release and the dates of technical reports, as applicable. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as there can be no assurance that the future circumstances, outcomes or results anticipated in or implied by such forward-looking statements will occur or that plans, intentions or expectations upon which the forward-looking statements are based will occur. While we have based these forward-looking statements on our expectations about future events as at the date that such statements were prepared, the statements are not a guarantee that such future events will occur and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors which could cause events or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.</i></p><i><br>Such factors and assumptions include, among others, the effects of general economic conditions, the price of gold, silver and copper, changing foreign exchange rates and actions by government authorities, uncertainties associated with legal proceedings and negotiations and misjudgments in the course of preparing forward-looking information. In addition, there are known and unknown risk factors which could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Known risk factors include risks associated with project development; the need for additional financing; operational risks associated with mining and mineral processing; fluctuations in metal prices; title matters; uncertainties and risks related to carrying on business in foreign countries; environmental liability claims and insurance; reliance on key personnel; the potential for conflicts of interest among certain of our officers, directors or promoters with certain other projects; the absence of dividends; currency fluctuations; competition; dilution; the volatility of our common share price and volume; tax consequences to U.S. investors; and other risks and uncertainties. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

In particular, the term "resource" does not equate to the term "reserve". The Securities Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" or "inferred mineral resources" or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute "reserves" by SEC standards, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the law of the Company's jurisdiction of incorporation or of a jurisdiction in which its securities are traded. U.S. investors should also understand that "inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Disclosure of "contained ounces" is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.</i>    <p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="justify"><br><em>Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.</em></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p><p style="MARGIN: 0px"><table style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; FONT: 10pt TIMES NEW ROMAN; MARGIN: auto" cellspacing="0" cols="1" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center" border="0" >    <tr><td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid"><p style="MARGIN: 0px" align="center">2</p></td></tr></table></p><p style="MARGIN: 0px">&nbsp;</p></BODY></html>
